Fortune and Great Place to Work honored First American Equipment Finance as one of this year’s Best Workplaces in New York. This is First American’s seventh consecutive year being named to this list, with the company finishing in 18th place in the small and medium category.
To determine the Fortune Best Workplaces in New York list, Great Place To Work collected more than 170,000 confidential survey responses from employees at eligible companies. In that survey, 98% of First American’s colleagues said First American is a great place to work. This number is 41% higher than the average U.S. company. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for employees regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier.
“We are honored to be recognized with this accolade for a seventh consecutive year,” Alan Sikora, CEO of First American, said. “My colleagues’ shared values, unparalleled work ethic and genuine camaraderie have fostered a culture that propels us to new heights each year.”
